Weekend Cat Blogging - Kitten time

Jamy, one week

The J-litter is now one week old! Time to show off these beauties - and they now have names, too. (Pretty much, anyway.) We went with a Shakespeare theme - Jupiter, Jamy, Juliet and Julius. (They might have some additions to their actual pedigree names, but we've not decided just yet.)

Anne, we actually got our first cat from Malmo! :) And we have been in touch with many breeders in Denmark regarding our cats (not yet with this litter though), but it's a lot easier when it's close-by. So far, we haven't clicked completely with anyone abroad (we were going to sell Ikaros from our last litter to Estonia, but unfortunately he turned out not to be good enough for breeding.) but we're totally open to it eventually :) Denmark is thankfully easy enough to export to - and from - due to EU regulations.

Yes, all little kittens are beautiful..but wait, some of them become little monsters, fighting with the neighbours cat, scratching the wallpaper and furniture, bite, when they feel it is time to get up, play with the cables until your PC doesn't work anymore, try to catch the fish in the pond, chase the squirrels, racoon and skunk, explore the roof and chimney, take a nap in a flower hanging basket and much more. We have a tabby cat, his name is Maximus called Maxi. Not a cat with pedigree, but a barn cat born in a small village close to Lake Ontario, Canada. The owner posted a sign "free kittens". We stopped the car, asked if we could see the kittens? How could we leave and not take one home? That day changed our life...cheers
